I got a couple of things planted too. NOT the hydrangeas I bought - they are staying in pots. But Viburnum Valley told me that a solution I used at home would work in shade, and for privacy. Miscanthus giganteous. Here it is at my house (under contract!) on a foggy day - my favorite shot. And, by the way, this is what the plant looked like after 3 years. I was going to order it from Forest Farm. Pic. 1

So what do you know, after all these years, I'm tidying the yard for the new owner and see one bigger than my original purchase. So I pull it out of a bed where it really should not be, put it in a pot with some compost, watered it, and it started growing. Pic. 2

So I installed it. See the charming chain link fence behind it? Sorry the snarling, barking dog isn't there to say hi! In about a year the barking, snarling dog, the ugly chain link, and the unpleasant neighbors will disappear! Like Magic! At NO COST!

As Speedie would say - WHEE!!!
